House Judiciary Investigates 'Imperial Presidency'

Our old friend and frothing fodder for countless jokes, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., has begun a House Judiciary investigation into the 'Bush Imperial Presidency.'

Conyers will investigate...well, everything.

He will investigate the War, the intelligence leading up to the War, interrogation techniques, allegations that Bush 'started a War as a means to rule the world,' and other such nonsense, in a spectacle that is sure to lampooned for the cosmic joke that it is.

Oh, and by the way, Rep. Dennis 'I Saw Outer-Space Aliens' Kucinich will get to bring up his proposal to impeach President Bush.

Congress is under the control of stooges. While we face an oil crisis that needs immediate attention, Pelosi wants to 'free our oil' that somebody, somewhere must be holding hostage, and Conyers wants to investigate all 8 years' worth of the Bush Presidency.

But none of the Democrats want to drill for oil, even as Cuba, Venezuela, and even China are drilling in our own backyard.

These people must have way too much time on their hands. They should all go home and return some money to the taxpayers--such as about half of their salaries.

The Liberty Sphere Policy on Errors/Corrections

Dear Liberty Sphere Readers:

A blog like The Liberty Sphere is ultimately dependent upon the reporting of factual information from which to draw commentary. Reliable commentary can be provided only if the basis for that commentary is accurate information.

From time to time we make errors in the reporting of facts, as do all news sources. Our policy is to immediately correct such errors as soon as they are discovered, and to alert readers that the post in question is a corrected version.

Today we reported that the infamous H.R. 1022 had made it through committee and had been submitted to be placed on the docket. That information is incorrect, and we apologize for the error.

H.R. 1022, the sweeping anti-gun legislation that poses as an 'assault weapons ban' has been formally submitted to the House Judiciary Committee for debate. The bill, first introduced by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, D-NY, now has 30 co-sponsors.

The fact that H.R. 1022 has not yet made it through the House Judiciary is no reason to grow complacent, however. This is the time to contact members of the House, particularly those who serve on the Judiciary Committee, to urge them to prevent this bill from making it to the House floor.

If those of us who value our 2nd Amendment rights can prevent this bill from seeing the light of day before the full House, then we will have scored a major victory for Constitutional rights.

One more thing about errors/corrections. We were fortunate enough today to catch our own error. There are times when things slip by us totally, however. If factual errors (as opposed to opinion) are found on The Liberty Sphere, be sure to alert us, and we will check it out and correct it if necessary. Simply leave a message in the comment section of the particular post in question.

Thank-you for your help. We deeply value our readers.

Sincerely,
D. Martyn Lloyd-Morgan

LIBERTY ALERT! Conyers Seeks to Criminalize Anti-Gay Religious Speech!

Washington, DC (TLS). The doomsday scenario The Liberty Sphere warned about if Democrats took control of Congress in November of last year is gradually coming to fruition. Ultra-liberal, gun-grabbing, speech-squelching John Conyers, who is head of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee, in spite of his admission to violating federal election law, is pushing for a federal criminalization of anyone who speaks ill of a homosexual, even within the context of religious speech, such as in a sermon, Sunday School lesson, or general discussions of religious beliefs.

Conyers' plan has the blessing of Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Many post-industrial countries around the world have such laws banning anti-gay speech. Church ministers, Sunday School teachers, and other lay persons have either gone to jail or faced stiff fines if convicted of even SPEAKING about homosexuality in negative terms.

The Conyers/Pelosi plan would place such speech under 'hate crimes' legislation.

Thus, in the United States of America, the one place in the world where a Bill of Rights supposedly protects individual rights such as free speech, to merely state that homosexuality is a sin in public would possibly subject one to the charge of a 'hate crime' if the Conyers/Pelosi plan goes through.

Congressional observers do not give the proposal much of a chance. However, they caution that this is not the end of the battle. Even if Conyers loses his bid to place such a speech ban in hate crimes legislation, he will try again under a different bill. The hope is that citizens' activist groups will be so protest weary by that time, they won't even notice when Democrats slip such a speech ban into other pieces of legislation.

My friends, I have attempted to remain as coldly objective as possible in the wake of the Democrat victory in November, not wishing to appear too much the alarmist. However, I can hold back no longer. With this blatant attempt by Liberal Democrats in the House to ban free speech simply to appease the powerful pro-gay lobby, it is clear that Nancy Pelosi's gang of thugs is the single biggest threat to human liberty outside of terrorism.

Yes, they are thugs.

If my Pastor wishes to read from the Bible that 'men lying with men' is an abomination unto the Lord, then he should have that right in the United States of America. If I wish to write on my blog that I think homosexuals are behaving in a sinful and unnatural manner, I should have that right in the United States of America. After all, any of you have the right to call me a closed-minded, homophobic bigot. I have the right to call you an idiot. This is called FREE SPEECH.

The fact that our Congress is controlled by a gang of thugs who wish to rob citizens of ALL of their rights is a personal afront to me and to any conscientious citizen.

Friends, let's get ready to fight. Let's show this bunch of extremist Leftwing wackos that we have not even begun to fight, and they assault our rights at their own peril.

Not only should there be investigations into Conyers and others for treason, high crimes and misdemeanors, and the like, but we need to start NOW to mount a national campaign to ensure that these parasites on our government never get elected to public office ever again.
